SUMMARY

In order to solve the problem that a child easily opens a zipper bag, the present application provides a child resistant bag and an opening method thereof.

In a first aspect, the present application provides a child resistant bag, which adopts the following technical solutions:

A child resistant bag, including a bag body, a first wing and a second wing that are arranged at two sides of an inlet of the bag body, wherein the first wing includes a first strip, and an upper wing and a lower wing a connected to two sides of the first strip, the second wing includes a second strip and a lower wing b connected to a lower side of the second strip, the upper wing and the lower wing a are both connected to an inner wall at the inlet of the bag body, the lower wing b is connected to the other inner wall at the inlet of the bag body, the first strip and the second strip are arranged correspondingly, the first strip and the second strip are press-fitted to each other so that the bag body is sealed automatically, a gap is provided between one side of the upper wing and the inner wall of the bag body to form a finger extension area, and a sealing structure is provided between the upper wing and the bag body and within the finger extension area.

By adopting the above technical solutions, when the two sides of the bag body are pulled apart to open the inlet of the bag body, because the force point of the first wing and the bag body is on the upper wing, and the force point of the second wing and the bag body is on the lower wing b, the problem of force point misalignment is generated, so that the bag body is difficult to be pulled apart in a normal way, and it is difficult for a child to open the bag body. In this case, the user extends the finger into the finger extension area, the fingers of the two hands can be kept at force points of the same height, and the bag body can be pulled apart. In addition, the sealing structure increases the concealment of the finger extension area, so that the child cannot easily open the bag body by mistake, for example, eating medicines in the bag body or food additives in the bag body by mistake, and therefore potential safety hazards are reduced. If the bag body needs to be opened, the sealing structure is pulled apart to extend the finger into the finger extension area.

Alternatively, the sealing structure includes a fake sealing structure formed between the upper wing and the bag body and within the finger extension area.

By adopting the above technical solutions, the fake sealing structure increases the concealment of the finger extension area, which is not easily found by a child. The upper wing and the bag body at the fake sealing structure can be pulled apart, and therefore the user can conveniently extend fingers into the finger extension area to open the bag body.

Alternatively, the sealing structure includes the fake sealing structure is formed by using a fake sealing process.

By adopting the above technical solutions, the fake sealing structure formed by using the fake sealing process makes the upper wing and the bag body within the finger extension area are tightly connected and can also be pulled apart, and meanwhile, it is good in concealment and difficult to find.

Alternatively, the fake sealing structure is formed by gluing.

By adopting the above technical solutions, the fake sealing structure formed by gluing has a making process simpler than the fake sealing process, and meanwhile, the fake sealing structure is good in concealment and difficult to find.

Alternatively, the sealing structure includes a true sealing structure formed between the upper wing and the bag body and within a finger extension area, the upper wing has a cutting line provided along a length direction of the upper wing, and the cutting line passes through the finger extension area and is positioned below the true sealing structure.

By adopting the above technical solutions, the true sealing structure increases the concealment of the finger extension area, and the upper wing and the bag body at the true sealing structure cannot be pulled apart. When the bag body needs to be opened, the user scratches the cutting line where the upper wing is within the finger extension area with fingers, so that the finger extends into the finger extension area to open the bag body. In addition, the cutting line still has a good concealment after one use, and it is still difficult for the child to find.

S4, forcibly and simultaneously pulling apart the bag body by two hands towards opposite directions.

In summary, the present application comprises at least one of the following beneficial technical effects.

1. The finger extension area allows the user to extend the finger into the area between the upper wing and the bag body, so that the fingers of the two hands can be kept at force points of the same height, and the bag body can be pulled apart. In addition, the sealing structure increases the concealment of the finger extension area, so that the child cannot easily open the bag body by mistake, for example, eating medicines in the bag body or food additives in the bag body by mistake, and therefore potential safety hazards are reduced. If the bag body needs to be opened, the sealing structure is pulled apart to extend the finger into the finger extension area.
